Re: Chrysler LHS 1999 start problem [kerri29]
Written by: jayrider on Dec 6, 2006 2:24:24 PM
Call a tow truck and have it delivered to a trustworthy garage to have it diagnosed . Should be pretty straight forward to diagnose---no fuel= bad pump, obstructed lines etc.

Update on 1999 LHS Transmission
Written by: rogman on Mar 4, 2004 9:38:37 AM
Thanks to all who posted follow ups. The 1999 LHS is covered only 3 years, 36.000 miles. No other warranty coverage. I believe the 7/70 warranty started in 2000 LHS models. I had the trans fixed at my independent auto shop. He used 3 Mopar parts for a cost of about $400. All other parts were 3rd party. Chrysler said they would refund cost of the 3 Mopar parts he used ... Read More

fastdriver -- 7/70 warranty
Written by: mileshoover on Feb 4, 2004 7:14:26 PM
Gotta disagree with your last that there was no 7/70 warranty on the '99 LHS. Took delivery of mine in April 1998 and was offered my choice of 3/36 or 7/70. Since the 7/70, at that time, included only 1/12 along with it on items other than the drive train, I opted to get the 3/36 warranty. Probably most other buyers did the same due to that skimpy additional coverage. We ... Read More

1999 LHS Wheels
Written by: mileshoover on Mar 10, 2002 6:18:05 AM
Wheel vibration, at least in my case, was caused by out-of-round and/or warped brake rotors. This was caused by the fact that the rotors are not sufficiently thick enough for most braking. If you are a heavy braker, I have found that the current-day rotors warp very easily. But this is true of most modern cars that I have owned lately. My Merc's were extremely bad on front end vibration while ... Read More

Though I haven't checked, I suspect that the module discussed next will fit on most recent Chrysler products OR there is one made to fit them because Canadian Chrysler product MUST have RL's installed on them.

After hanging around this BB for almost two years, I took the plunge. Bought a new Garnet Red LHS with only two options: Luxury group and Side Air Bags for $26,241.00 + Sales Tax and Registration. Barely broken in - but I love it. The Chrysler engineers have really listened since this model was first introduced in 1999. My 2001 model LHS is very quiet (more so than my 1993 Cadillac ...

Quiet Group Equals Happy Owners

I bought my '99 LHS back on Halloween of 1999, and I have been very happy with the car. I had initially looked at the 300M, but when I realized that the LHS was essentially a cheaper 300 with trunk space, I switched. Auto Stick might mean something to those who live up in the mountains, but it means almost nothing to those of us who live in mostly flat areas ... Read More

About the only difference I can see is the 4 CD in-dash changer and the daylight running lights. Someone wrote the gearshift handle was different, but it didn't seem changed in the Y2K 300M I saw. The silver is new and Platinum is gone. There may be under-the-skin changes, but nothing I could see. The LHS list has been reduced to make the 300M $1,000 more than the LHS, because of ... Read More

Interesting results from research/negotiations on a 1999 and 2000 LHS. The 1999 is offered at $2000 under invoice (the amount of the cash-to- dealer incentive), plus an additional $1000 off for a coupon sent to former Chrysler owners (which I am not) and some people who requested info on the LHS over the Internet (which I did). HOWEVER, Chrysler has subsidized ("program") leases on 2000 model cars, but no program leases ... Read More

I'm seriously considering an LHS and, with the recently announced $2,000 dealer cash and a dealer offer to deduct that amount from invoice, it seems like an attractive deal. (I like the LHS over the 300M primarily because of the trunk size and the little extra interior room.
